TitleNeed advice regarding a neighbour & her dog.

Hi guys, first post here, just looking for some advice if anyone can help.

Basically, my neighbour has a Staffie that she cannot control & she doesn't leash it. Last night it was out in our shared back garden when I went to let out my mini-Jack Russell, who is 18 & severely anxious around other dogs/people due to a previous attack, we actually have her on a red leash to let people know not to approach or let a dog approach.

So my partner & I didn't see her out the back until her dog came sprinting up to us, I just managed to pick my dog up in time before it was trying to climb up my legs to get to her. I asked her firmly & politely to get her dog away from me & under control, that she shouldn't have her dog unleashed if it doesn't respond to her commands.

We told her to get it on a lead & she actually said to us "it's not my problem, I have a heart condition" which confused the shite out of me cause what does that have to do with anything? She seemed totally out of it, either drugs, drink or both but she could barely string a sentence together & was doing absolutely nothing to control her dog.

She started getting hostile to which my partner & I then just started repeating "get your dog the f*** away from us" "look at the state of this, get your dog under control"

She literally did nothing except follow it as it was chasing me, climbing up my legs. It didn't even have a collar on for us to be able to grab it, so my partner had to physically get in between me & the dog in order for me to get away. The whole time she was doing nothing to control her dog, for the 5 /10 minutes it took me to walk all the way around to the front of the close. I eventually managed to get back into my close & it took her over 10 more minutes to get her dog to listen to her & come in.

This afternoon she was waiting outside her door in the close for me to let my dog out, to tell me in a hostile manner that she had phoned the police on me. This was at 13.00 today & still no-one has a appeared.

I'm basically just looking for some advice from someone who has been in this position before as I have never had the police called on me ever & am absolutely clueless about what to do or expect.

Thanks in advance.
